Jewish World Review July 29, 2020 Rogue Report By Argus Hamilton

The Washington Redskins team owner and office staff left their fans cross-eyed Thursday by re-naming their NFL team the Washington Football Team. If you've seen how awful they play, they almost got it right. I think they should call them Washington Team Football, or WTF for short.
• Los Angeles restaurants in West Hollywood and Beverly Hills this past week began defying statewide and county shutdown orders due to skepticism over these virus statistics. Last night at Dodger Stadium, a foul ball killed two cardboard fan cutouts. The cause of death was listed as Covid.
• The Major League Baseball season began in Washington with a dramatic show of player racial solidarity Thursday. Sometimes the jokes write themselves in Washington. It was so touching to see all the baseball players take a knee on a day that happened to be Monica Lewinsky's 47th birthday.
• Congressman and civil rights icon John Lewis was honored Monday as his casket was put on display in the U.S. Capitol. He was a champion for voting rights. Due to a quirk in the Democratic Party rules if, G od forbid, Joe Biden happened to die before the election, he can still vote for himself.
• Dr. Fauci said the phase two trials are set to begin and millions of vials are ready for delivery on the vaccine's approval. He urged safety measures in the meantime. If I see you wearing your mask while you're driving alone, I'm going to assume it's to control the urge to lick the windows.
• President Trump traveled to a lab in North Carolina to tout vaccine progress. Trump just signed huge deals with Big Pharma to distribute their vaccines upon USDA approval. I'm still trying to figure out why there's no cure for a virus that can be killed by hand sanitizer and soap.
• Joe Biden visited the U.S. Capitol Monday to pay respects to Congressman John Lewis, whose casket lay the Capitol Rotunda. Joe had to show his ID to get out. Placing anyone's casket in the Rotunda is quite a symbolic honor since seven out of ten Americans today are considered rotund.
• HBO agreed to bring Gone with the Wind back to HBO Max but HBO added five minutes of racial context commentary before the movie. The disclaimer is pretty snippy. It reads, this movie contains racist language and racist behavior which viewers may find offensive, unless they are white.
